Well I read for the details in Campione. Art still matters even if it is average which it is now. They really should consider Miyama Zero, Fumitake Moekibara, Akira Mikazuki, Aoi Nishimata, Goto P or Carnelian to take over the art. (Know a lot more artists, but I think it is too much for people to follow). Can post examples of each artist if anyone like.

If there is a change of illustrator, I wouldn't be happy though. I have no idea how the he'll will the following volumes be drawn, and I like the improvement made so far.

Understand how you feel, maybe all of us are excited for the anime and the fear is the illustrations are playing on our nerves of how it will look. Can't wait for the next update, zzhk took over vol 5 I believe.

Some of us, like me, read the Japanese original. Some read Chinese translations online.

Dunno, it's not like I studied Japanese or anything. But such theories come up a lot in LNs and the like... like conspiracy theories.
On a more factual level, it's a given that there are families that have been influential for a long, long time. But every country has those. If some of the Japanese ones have been influential since the Warring States period, I don't know.

Somebody what truly happend in volume 12? The girls seem to be in a fight with Godou or just teasing him over something, but according to the illustrations of volume everything work out very well at the end.

Well Wilfriback stated he read it and the girls were cold to him until Luo came to cheer him up. Overall they made up in the end, now people are becoming obsess with Godou punishing the harem for the treatment they gave him. Not sure if it is correct, Kadi is currently reading it now, best to ask him when he is willing. The thing I want Kadi to answer is this photo.

Jap says it's a Koto. What the difference is, except one being Japanese and one... not, I don't know.

And...

Spoiler for V12:

I wasn't joking when I said the Grinch had come to steal Christmas. Someone's going through Tokyo and making all the red Santa Clauses grey! Whether they are costumed men or in images, all of them are changed to grey. But Godou's body doesn't react to a god, and the girls don't pick up anything, neither divine nor magical, so it's quite mysterious. They do find an odd spirit wrapped in grey cloth apparently related to the incidents, but it commits suicide in front of their eyes... maybe that really was a servant of Santa Claus?

That's about as far as I want to spoil. I've got a bit more about the girls but I'll do that later.

Also, so far (why did I first write "so GAR"?) this volume is abso-freaking-lutely awesome (reason why I don't want to spoil much). Gives me all I want and more. On a 1 (bad) to 10 (good) scale for harem LNs, it's a steady 9 with peaks going up to 11. Author (Can I call him Jou-chan?) generally surpassed himself.

Well if that is what it says then I won't complain Kadi. Hope to learn what is really happening in vol 12 and especially the harem soon, but take your time. You spent your money to buy it, so you got the right to enjoy yourself and troll on us on the details (Not so much please, want the real stuff a lot more).

Know presenting volume 6, chapter 3, part 2 translated by yours truly. I found this scene somewhat amusing so I figured I might as well share it.

Godou's denseness in this scene is really something............. according to my calculations it's about 0.2 Ichickas.

This is a test run for me and my chinese isn't very good so don't expect 100% accuracy.

More like 80% actually........................

Spoiler for translation:

Liliana Kranjcar is very adept at using hiding spells. If she uses it, she can assimilate herself with the woods and become one with the background. It’s similar to a protective clocking technique.

“So this is the curse cleanse. To think that it can actually break my [stealth clock], that’s a really remarkable technique. There’s a technique similar that borrows concepts from the fairies, but it has to gather power for a lot of years to use. From a convenience standpoint this is the best type of magic canceling spell.”

After being discovered Liliana says this.

“Well, it really is powerful, but first let’s not talk about this Liliana...........”

“Ah”

“Aren’t your actions a little too much, give me a break already”.

Godou is already used to how to deal with the silver knight. She isn’t too stubborn. It’s more like she’s too smart so she worries insistently on unnecessarily things. So it’s better to have a proper conversation and let things sort out naturally, however Liliana replied in a worried tone.

“However today aren’t you coming out to flirt with another woman!”

“She’s not a woman, she’s a girl, and besides isn’t her sister, Mariya Yuri, here as well!”

“Kusanagi Godou, you have lots of excuses for your actions. But I know. Japan from the Heian period has lots of people similar to you who hope to raise young girls up to be wives. The famous Genji for example managed to get a young wife by raising her up from childhood. Lu the Kula Zia (?) is similar.

Godou is speechless, Liliana continues to say.

“The possibility of the sister of Mariya Yuri becoming concubine is absolutely not low. In terms of statistics men will purposely start liking younger girls who are close to them.”

“Really is it like that, sister? Does big bro also intend to make me his concubine?”

“No, no it’s not like that, don’t use the word concubine!”

After seeing a shocked Hikari who listened to such negative words about him, Godou decided to speak out.

“Don’t use a word like concubine. Fine since this is an opportunity, let’s make it clear.”

“Ok, I understand”

“Don’t frame me, Liliana. I’m not a playboy like you think I am, nor I’m I popular with girls. It’s more correct to say that I’m a serious person who is not used to interacting with girls”.

“Even if you say that, the drastic actions you’ve taken in the past is too much”.

“It’s because I understand everything, that I’m willing to say this. Compared to a life filled with women relations, you’d rather have a stable, basic lifestyle. In terms of actions you are an advocator of the pleasures of polygamy, but in terms of spirit you adhere to monogamy.”

“Ah…………. A life filled with women and pleasure is an unnecessary description.”

“Is that really true? In regards to this I’ve already investigated”.

What did Liliana investigate? Godou tilted his head in confusion.

“Recently, I felt that it was very strange. After having contacted you for some time and understanding your personality and hobbies, I’ve came to the conclusion that you are not suited to have a harem consisting of Ena Seishuuin, Mariya Yuri and Erica. Yet in the end why…………… in order solve this mystery I researched the female relations you had in the past.”

Oh, so you did something like this. But the number of years researched will=the number of years Kusanagi Godou didn’t have a girlfriend so there should be no meaningful intelligence.

To Godou who was feeling more and more confused, the silver knight asked.

“Do you still remember Konna Emily (?) who was very close to you in the third year of middle school.”

“Konna………. oh there was such a person. She was a girl with a very poor memory. She often forgets her textbook so I who set next to her often combined my desk with hers to share a textbook. I don’t know why but she was very friendly to me. Even if she has nothing to talk about she would still talk to me. It’s probably because we were in the same class.”

“Then how about Konna Emily’s best friend, Uchida Kyoka (?)”?

“She was a very clever girl. You often see her walk with Konna. Very quiet. Speaking of which she gave me a “can we become friends” letter. So I became her friend.

“There’s also Tokunaga Asuka”.

“She’s an old friend who lived in the same neighborhood as me. I remember you and her pass each other a bunch of times. She has a very strong temper and is always complaining and nagging so it causes people to feel afraid. Oh, and she would suddenly make bento’s for me. Says it’s “leftovers”.

After that Liliana said some more names.

Endo Maya, You Kawasaki, Ayaka Nakazawa and others. Every single time Godou thinks hard about it and remembers them.

“Speaking of which didn’t you also agree to marry someone in your childhood? Isn’t that right Kusanagi Godou.”

“What? Everyone were friends in the past. What do you mean “even if you say that”?

“As expected of brother, in the past he has so many relationships, so manly”.

Yuri who murmured, “this person had this kind of past” was shocked and upset, while her sister Hikari was looking at Godou with sparkling eyes.

“Having so many girls try to attract you, and you yourself still don’t realize……… from the day you were born you had a ladykiller’s DNA, I Liliana Kranjcar acknowledge this from the bottom of my heart. Kusanagi Godou you are like a sleep walking serial killer, unconsciously slaying women’s hearts.”

Impossible, Kusanagi Godou isn’t that type of men.

However, at the side Mariya Yuri shook her head many times and Hikari said, “whoa, really amazing”. They all agreed. Why?

“So today’s rude stalking of you is for your own good, in order to prevent a young maiden from being captured by your fangs, I mean your overwhelming charms”.

“Wait a minute Liliana. When did I prepare to do such a thing to Hikari, I don’t intend to do anything”.

“Oh, it’s like this. Your sense of justice is strong and your intentions are noble. You aren’t a savage that will take advantage of a young maiden. You won’t talk love with a virgin. However take a look at that girl”.

Liliana pointed her finger at Mariya Yuri’s sister. Hikari tilted her head in confusion.

“Hikari is already smitten with you. Don’t you think this is a dangerous state”.

“Oh, isn’t that only paying her respects to those older than her?”

"That would normally be true but you are an unconscious lady killer…………………..I could already guess the end outcome."

“Right, Hikari Mariya is filled with endless gratitude towards you, so first it starts of as an attraction. Then she decided to dedicate her innocence to you. As young love escalates, she wants you to have every part of her. Initially due to the age difference you decline her invitation, but then the dirty thoughts take hold of you and you decide to pluck this young flower for your own---

“--- Oh so it’s like that….. one day I will be by big brother’s side…….. serving him.”

“No, that kind of thing, I will never allow my sister to take part in.”

Liliana’s story threw the Mariya sisters into confusion. Godou maintained a good distance from them, and then sneakily spoke one on one to the blue knight.

“Hey, Liliana you thought to much………… no it’s better to say that your imaginations to rich. Hikari is younger than my own sister, to such a kid, how could I have such thoughts.”

Truthfully, what happened in the past, Godou himself cannot understand. Seeing the confused expression on Godou’s face, Liliana smiled and said.

“But you also aren’t the type to play with girls. At least that’s a good thing about you. Ok, fine let’s bet, whether or not Hikari will be ensnared by your charms.”

Huh? Not understanding the blue knight’s meaning, Godou was stunned.

“If Hikari Mariya doesn’t feel any emotions of love towards you, it’s your victory. I’ll admit that you can control your charms and I won’t complain about it anymore. But if she wants to stay and serve you—“

At this point Liliana said with a look of determination.

“--- At this point give me the rights to your boudoir”

Boudoir? Doesn’t that have similar meaning to bedroom.

“Recently, I’ve been troubled. Erica Blandelli has been managing everything as a lover. As your knight Liliana Kranjcar can only stand aside and ponder whether this is the right or not. At that instance I found the answer. Kusanagi Godou, as your sword, I’m also prepared to do your dirty work. If I win, I will be your new partner, assistant, and maid. Everything you do, I’ll help you." (In other words replace Erica)

Godou thinks, that this bet can be easily won.

Looking at the far away Hikari, as the target of the gamble, she doesn’t have any feelings of “first love” nor does she show any signs of it. In other words it can be an easily won gamble. Absolutely no problem.

Also the still confused Yuri has also said that she will never let this sort of thing happen. Liliana dug her own hole with her weird delusions. Too bad Godou understands this.

“Ok I accept this gamble, let’s put the time to one month. How about that?”

“I understand. Kusanagi Godou, since we solved this problem I have a proposal.

To the Godou who agreed, Liliana said respectfully.

“For the problem of West Temple isn’t it better to talk to those who understand this situation better. Because you are [king] inquiry and the others will not refuse”.

Know that she mentioned, he almost forgot. As he listened to her proposal, Godou suddenly remembered them……..
